It can +connect a number of different applications to an audio device, as well +as allow them to share audio among themselves. Its clients can run in +their own processes (ie. as a normal application) or they can run within +a JACK server instance (i.e. as a "plugin"). + +Jack uses /dev/shm as a temporary directory for its processes; this is a +relatively new change, as it used to use /mnt/ramfs.
